Purchasing
Delivery is by Royal Mail or by courier, at our discretion. For safe delivery, prints are carefully wrapped in tissue and rolled into a three-inch-diameter heavy-duty tube. Please note that because each print is hand-produced to order via this website, there are a few restrictions on returns, but you are assured of our best attentions if you should have a problem with any of our products.
The purchase process at Picturesonline is fast, secure and very easy. Simply go to your favourite picture on the gallery pages (eg, 'Suffolk' on the Home page), click on it and you will be taken to a page that carries details of the picture and a link to Paypal for the size and paper type that you'd like. You'll also find a framing suggestion for each picture, which may be helpful.

A4 prints are only available as mounted pictures, and some A2 prints are Limited-Edition prints which are signed and numbered by the photographer.
The prices are standardized for each size,and each print is made to order.
All Picturesonline prints are produced with conservation in mind: on acid- and lignin-free, pH-neutral papers using the latest K3 pigment inks. All prints have an estimated fade resistance of 60-80 years when not exposed to direct sunlight or a ‘chemical’ environment, and should ideally be displayed under UV-resistant glass. Prints are made on the following papers:
For semi-gloss/lustre finish: Permajet’s heavy-duty Classic Fine Art paper ‘FB (fibre-based) Gold Silk’, 315gsm, with its exceptional stability and colour accuracy and absence of artificial whiteners; or similar paper from Pinnacle, their 300gsm ozone- and UV-absorbing Premium Lustre. For matt prints, we use Innova's beautiful 315gsm Soft Textured Bright White Cotton from their Professional Fine Art range.
Prints are available in A3 and A2 sizes. Please note that not all sizes are available for every image: a few pictures, particularly those from earlier source material, do not meet our quality standard for large prints, and will only be available the smaller size. Prints will always have a white border (approx. one inch / 2 cms) around the image to allow for mounting.
Our prints are always made to order. When you order a bespoke print from the image pages, you can be assured that it has been hand-crafted from source material using the latest pigment inks for longevity and will be despatched as soon as we ourselves are satisfied that you will be receiving the best available quality of print. Although we do not use the term (well, it's French), a giclée print is simply a posh, and often misleading, way of describing a high-quality digital print. In that sense, all our prints are giclées!
All prices quoted throughout the site are for prints only - no mounts, no frames, and no postage*. A4 prints are only available in the 'Sets' section.
